Massey Glacier (71°53′S 168°24′E) is a tributary glacier, 6 nautical miles (11 km) long, draining the west slopes of Meier Peak in the Admiralty Mountains of Antarctica. It flows west along the south side of Wylie Ridge to join Man-o-War Glacier. Massey Glacier was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–63, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for C. Stanton Massey, a meteorologist at South Pole Station in 1968.
